This study was aimed to estimate the level of specific biochemical markers (GOT, GPT) in blood serum of bodybuilding athletes referring to a sport court in Bagdad. For this purpose, a total of 100 athletes divided in two groups (50 each) were included; The first composed of those taken activators, while the other group contained those normal who were not taken any activators. All athletes were subjected to two liver markers [Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) and Glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT)] analysis. Results showed that higher (GOT) and (GPT)) levels (in significant differences) were recorded in the first group of athletes as compared to other group.
